In addition to products carried on a normal basis, starting Thursday, March 16, the Full Circle Food Pantry will be handing out pet food products for dog and cat owners. These products are on a first-come, first-served basis and given to households requesting items for their pets. Both items are canned and shelf-stable.

Questions regarding pick-up or contents of the pet food can be directed to pantry2@uark.edu.

Operating hours on Thursday are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 324 Stadium Dr., attached to the Walton Residence Hall. As a reminder, you must be affiliated with the U of A to use the Full Circle Food Pantry. 

Food drives are the primary source of food for the Full Circle Food Pantry. Are you involved with a group that would like to host a food drive? Please email fcdrives@uark.edu to set up a drive.

Volunteer opportunities for the Full Circle Food Pantry open at the beginning of each semester. If you or your department are looking for a one-time volunteer event, we may be able to accommodate you. Please reach out to pantry3@uark.edu with any requests. 

The Full Circle Food Pantry is an on-campus resource for all students, faculty and staff to use. Located at 324 Stadium Dr., the pantry is open Mondays 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Wednesdays 3-6 p.m. and Thursdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The only eligibility requirement is affiliation through the university — no income requirements or documents necessary to utilize the pantry.
